Oh I like that one! Are you risking it in the garden?

Have you noticed (sure you have!) how it appears to be difficult to get the colours right on a photo - I had a look at this one on a couple on Lilncoln Fuchsia soc.'s pages and they were different both from each other and yours! Whenever you look up a particular one on Google images the huge variety is very confusing as how do you know which one is right? Even suppliers catalogues vary a bit.
(Funny though as the ones on Goy always seem to be accurate)

No I'm not putting it in the ground. I didn't think it was hardy.
Although the colours don't always come true on a photo, the colours on this photo are quite accurate.
However I now have my doubts whether it has the right name.

I have just gone through the whole catalogue of tender bush fuchsias from both Other Fellow and Potash Nurseries and couldn't find it anywhere. That very fine line round the petals ought to be a clue. Sure now it isn't Lincoln Castle. Label it Hywel's mystery...
